Hi all

I've been riding the trails in Swinley over the past few weeks, and so far so good! I've found a few of the trails mentioned on various forums etc, such as the trails off the hill by Surrey reservoir, what I think is labyrinth / baby maker (next hill along, entrance by a pile of sand), and what appears to be a recently built trail starting on lower star point by some large concrete blocks. I keep readng about trails called Tank Tracks, whole 9 yards and the Corkscrew - can anyone point me in the right direction in terms of how to find these, plus any other little gems you wish to share with a Swinley newbie....

Cheers!!!

    We seem to have a ride planned for Saturday morning that will cover just about all of the trails at Swinley. (London Calling).
    More than welcome to join in.
    That map is pretty good, but not always easy to find them on the ground.

    Seagull is the trail by the blocks at lsp. As Cooldad says were riding at 10 on sat. Meet at the gazebo. Weather is gonna suck by the lOok of it, but hey this is mountain biking not sunbathing.

    Cheers - thanks for the advice and the offer to join you. Not sure what time I'll be there as it'll depend on whether 2 or 3 others join me, if we're there at 10 we'll pop over and say hi

    have a good one if I don't see you
